Kansas to Test Brick and Tile Clay
Lawrence, Kan., March 16.-The
University of Kansas has installed a
laboratory and apparatus to test the
brick and tile clay of the state for
commercial purposes.

And are you from Ould Erin now,
at di'mond in the say? And have
u clean forgot, me b'y, 'tis good St.
thrick's day? Just put a sprig o'
amrock on yer nifty new dhudeen,
d wear the ould saint's colors where
ey're aisy to be seen..
'Twas sixteen hunder year ago, or
aybe more or less, that he wallowed
rough the Cavan bogs, the people
confess. He sung a Latin canticle,
illalah in his han', when drivin' all
e snakeses out o' glorious Irelan'.
ire he built the Paschal fire on the
tle hill o' Slane, and he gave the
ira haythen twinty dif'frunt kinds
pain.

'Tis said he loved a dram or two
and had a roogish eye, and he wud
take a fayther's kiss from a colleen
on the sly. Faix, it's now he sits in
heaven wid his harp and crown of
gold, and a pint of Irish whiskey just
to keep from takin' cold.
And he talks about elections to
Brian Boru wid a smile, fer he's
pathaon saint of City Halls as well
as of our isle. Then let us make a
gran' parade' and give a woild hur-
roo, and sing the songs of Erin as
our faythers used to do. Oh, I pity
any Orange-man who lets his mug be
seen, for the day it is St. Pathrick's,
and we're wearin' o' the green.


pr-it of Old
Indian Chief
Rejuvenated
Tontagini, Spirit of Michigan!
One hundred years ago, in the de-
re that his children and his chil-
en's children might have the ad-
,ntages of the white nan's education,
ontagini, noble chieftain of the Ot-
was, gave of the meagre lands left
s people that a university might be
unded in the present state of Mich-
an.
The scene is laid at Fort Meigs,
here on Sept. 29, 1817, the Chippe-
as, the Ottowas, and the Potawa-
mies, met with Generals McArthur
id Cass to sign the treaty of Fort
eigs, whereby hostilities were for-
er ceased.
Tontagini, profiting by the teach-
gs and kindly good feeling of Fath-
Richard, at that time priest of St.
nne's church of Detroit, decided to
tcrifice a portion of the reservation
ft to his people by Hull's treaty of
07 for this worthy cause.
The late Doctor James B. Angell,
. his biennial address of 1887 refer-
d ,to this, expressing his regret that
> Indian had ever been educated at
ichigan. Judge Thomas M. Cooley,
rmer chief justice for the Michi-
in supreme court, once said, "Ton-
gini deserves an honorable place in
.e founding of colleges with John
arvard and Elihu Yale."
And now Tontagini once more re-
.rns to Michigan. This time he comes
eading for the spirit that guided him
'ight, pleading for democracy that
'eviously made all factions as one,
eading that his people may awaken
id hasten to leave the "Fools' Par-
Lise" in which they have been living.

TENNIS CLUB TO MEET MONDAY
New Organization to Unify Campus
Net Interests
The Tennis club which was organ-
ized last week for the purpose of un-
ifying the .tennis interests at Mich-
igan will meet at 7 o'clock Monday
evening in Lane hall. At this time
some one who is familiar with the
sport will speak.
The following men were elected of-
ficers of the organization at the last

N. H. Davidson, '17E.
SHARPSHOOTERS SHOW HIGH
TOTALS IN RECENT MATCHES
Since the inauguration of the mem-
bership campaign the Rifle club has
been showing up in fine style. In the
last three matches held on the range
in Waterman gymnasium the team has
shown a consistent increase in the to-
tals for the five best scores.
On March 3 the total for the five
best targetso was 847. F. S. Huyck
came through as high man with a tar-
get of 175. The following week the
scoring amounted to 878 when J. P.
Thompson punctured the target for
186 out of a possible 200. In its last
match the team totaled 885. Thomp-
son again pulled down the highest
score, registering 185.
The sharpshooters were handi-
capped earlier in the season because
of delay in the completion of the
range. As a result most of the men
dropped out. The recent member-
ship campaign, however, has resulted
in the return of a good many of the

"The Flonzaley Sisters" to Appear as
Guest Soloists at Twilight
Concert
The Elsa Fischer quartet, which
will appear as guest soloists at the
twilight concert on the afternoon of
March 21 in Hill auditorium, spent the
greater part of last summer at Lake
Placid, in the Adirondacks, a resort
which seems to have a peculiar at-
traction for musicians.
Among the other summer residents
last year were Amato, Gluck, Zim-
balist, Herbert, Goldmark, and the
Flonzaley quartet. The Fischer quar-
tet proved to be very popular in these
surroundings and had the distinction
of acquiring the nickname, "The
Flonzaley Sisters."
After the Flonzaleys had attended
a concert given by the Elsa Fischer
quartet, Adolfo Betti, first violin of
the Flonzaley quartet, wrote a let-
ter to Miss Fischer in which he con-
gratulated her upon the splendid re-
sults she has achieved.
This quartet will present the major
portion of the program on March 21,
but Frances Louise Hamilton will
also appear in an interesting group
of piano numbers.

ing.
